This time, he managed to get sentencing pushed back until October 2nd by pledging to enter "voluntary residential rehab".
His lawyer, Sean Curran, claims Doherty is doing well:
"I think he's quite serious. He's asked to go in and he's still there so he's trying," Curran told The Mirror.
... before repeating "Denny Crane" over and over again.
A cynical observer might wonder if this sudden desire to try, once again, residential rehab is less about a genuine desire to kick drugs, and more a genuine desire to avoid being sentenced to time in prison. Still, we're sure everyone will get the option to exercise the chance to go away for a little holiday instead of being sentenced for offence after offence. "Sorry, your honour, my client has elected to go for a week to Minehead Butlins instead of answering these robbery charges..."
Well as long as he's 'quite' serious.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a lawyer, so there's no reason I'd know: Is that more serious than 'fairly' serious? Or less serious than 'moderately' serious
